How have Singapore’s courts navigated the evolving and often contentious landscape of division of matrimonial assets upon divorce? Through an extensive empirical study of matrimonial cases in Singapore, this monograph offers fresh insights into the historical and jurisprudential development of the division of matrimonial assets in its courts. It examines how legal reforms – from the Women’s Charter amendments in 1980 and 1996 to the “structured approach” introduced in ANJ v ANK (2015) – have influenced judicial practices in this area of Singapore family law. By drawing on comprehensive datasets on local matrimonial cases, it proposes a principled methodology for equitable asset division grounded in partnership law principles. Essential reading for family law judges and practitioners, policymakers, and social workers, this work is a key resource for stakeholders in the family law community in Singapore.

Our new edition: Youth Justice in Singapore has been released, and it is available for purchase here.

The guiding philosophy of the juvenile justice system is that the rehabilitation of the juvenile offender is the best way to prevent him from re-offending. The task of rehabilitation involves re-integrating the juvenile offender with his family and the community. It requires him to take responsibility both for his wrongdoing and his future. This is an effort involving many parties, not least the juvenile offender himself. This book explores the roles played by the various parties in the rehabilitation of the juvenile offender, including probation officers, social workers, institutional staff, his school, parents, extended family, and so on. It also covers the legal principles, case law, procedures and processes in the arena of juvenile crime, and shows how the juvenile justice system is designed to advance and promote the rehabilitation philosophy.
